Where to Watch the Super Bowl in Europe

If you're going to be in Europe and want to watch the biggest game of the NFL season, we've got you covered. Sure, you could hole up in a hotel room with your computer (the game is streaming for free from NFL's website) or shell out for the pay-per-view, but there's something amazing about watching the game in a bar from 12am-4am with a diverse group that makes going out worth it. While the NFL in Europe isn't even a little bit close to as popular as it is in the US, there are still more fans than you might expect. You never know what you will find without trying, so here's a list of some great places to watch the Super Bowl in Europe.

Amsterdam, Netherlands

At Coco's Outback, their motto is 'lousy food, warm beer.' Sounds like a great place to watch the Super Bowl in Amsterdam. It seems to be one of the only Australian sports pubs in the area, and the owners clearly have a great sense of humor. Maybe it's from the 'legalized smoking area' located on premises. No cover to get in, and drink specials all night. More on renting a car in Amsterdam.

Barcelona, Spain

When in doubt, look for a Hard Rock Cafe! This goes for other countries, not just Spain. Most Hard Rock's will have food and drink available till the game is over. In Barcelona, a small cover charge gets you in and includes a free drink.

Berlin, Germany

Kult Fabrik in Berlin had nearly a thousand people watch the game last year, and this year should be just as fun. The â‚8 cover charge gets you a free beer as well as the chance to watch the game on a 40sq meter projection of the American broadcast, so if you love the commercials, you won't miss out. If you have a group of 8, â‚80 will get you your own table, 6 liters of beer, and 8 hotdogs.

Brussels, Belguim

The hours at the Fat Boys Sports Bar in Brussels are always 11-late, and it's going to be a long, late night! Like most of the cities on this list, they will offer food and drink specials all night, and have a plethora of televisions to watch the game on.

Budapest, Hungary

Copenhagen, Denmark

There's the Frederiksberghallens Sportscafe who will have a cover of 266 DKK. They also offer snacks, and will have a Madden '12 tournament, as well as live cheerleaders.

Dublin, Ireland

You will want to arrive early to the Wool Shed. According to their website they turn away hundreds of fans every year once they hit capacity. Admission is Free. Another option in Dublin is over at Peadar Kearney's. For â‚50 you have access to the all-you-can-eat/drink buffet. Yes, you read that correctly, the price actually includes food and drinks all night! The venue has two 100 inch screens covering two floors, and each ticket gets you access to the halftime beer-pong tournament if you want to play.

Be sure to get your tickets in advance, as every year they are forced to turn away people once they reach capacity. Admission is £6 in advance or £10 at the door if you can get in. Yet another option is Planet Hollywood. With 18 large screens and live cheerleaders for halftime, the excitement is designed to keep you entertained all throughout the night at.
